Hi All - traded in my 2007 Accord for a 2019 Ram Big Horn Crew Cab. This is my first new car in 13 years and my first truck. My wife loves it too, especially all the room. Our first trip was to Costco where we fit everything including TP, paper towel, kleenex, 2 kids in car seats, and a rotisserie chicken in the back seat. I did a lot of reading and YouTubing on the Ramboxes in addition to playing with them at dealerships. I do not view them as a gimmick and look forward to the extra dry storage, extra power outlet, and permanent place for my 2 piece fishing poles and tackle box
I already found a used bed divider/extender on OfferUp nearby for less than $100.
There were a few hiccups along the way. The sales manager who wrote the deal was fired a few days before I closed, but the dealer honored the agreed upon price. I also needed the V61/V71 recall fix performed on the truck before they could sell it to me. It was manufactured in April 2019, but the VIN was still flagged with the airbag/searbelt pretensioner issue.
I did my homework beforehand and had an index card filled with extended warranty prices from chryslerfactoryplans.com. The finance guy couldn't get within $1,000 especially after applying the PAYINFULL promo code. So big thanks to all you who did the hard work for me on these blogs. Reading about your experiences made me feel more confident this was the truck for me. Too many comments and reviews out there are from angry and jaded people, but this forum seems like the opposite.
